Wow. Nothing like a picture. Thanks for that.

Just wanted to confirm, the FAL on the 992 can be activated at 40mph while slowing down in the US, correct?

I enter my neighborhood off a 50mph street with a bump to enter where I assume I’d slow to 40mph and hit the FAL button and end up entering at around 15-20mph at an angle.

If it activates only below 20mph then I may skip the option. Ordering SPASM without sport design package.

Confirmed. It will let you lower at 39mph and below. It will automatically raise again at 40mph.

Just double checking, but shouldn't it be the opposite, ie it will raise the front at speeds up to 39 mph, and once you hit 40, it lowers back to normal.

Thank you. Then I will definitely option it.

The US configurator only says “The Front Axle Lift System uses an electro-hydraulic function for raising the front axle by approximately 1.5 in. at the push of a button to increase ground clearance at speeds up to 21 mph.”
